If I was Trump, I'd supercede this bullshit and try to have the first people vaccinated before leaving office.

Anyone know what the real bottlenecks are from this point forward?

It feels like we have unlimited financial resources to throw at this. (Relative to how big bailouts have been)

Why noy, if it is a possible Truth?

It gets back to the article you posted the other day about making accusations without evidence.

I probably am one of the more anti conspiracy people here. Just don’t believe in them.

It is like the German guy in the World War 2. If you keep repeating a lie long enough, people will start to believe it.

You sure bought the "RUSSIA!RUSSIA!! RUSSIA" conspiracy hook line And sinker.

Here again, suddenly how much stimulus to give changes again. Amazing how the truth of everything is suddenly spilling out.

I'm not sure a lot of companies didn't realize they don't need huge buildings for their employees.

Oh, they will... But in the meantime, they still have time left on their lease. May as well get the poor bastards back into the office until then...

Until the vaccine has been widely distributed a lot of people will refuse and it won’t be difficult to muster a significant enough number to make them back down.

Not buying that. You don't just miss a story like that.

Cuomo is just flat wrong. The government does not have any infrastructure to distribute and administer the vaccine. To try to set that up would take months, by which time we could be well on the way to a vaccinated population.

The private sector does have that infrastructure, however imperfect. We see it every year in flu shots. as far as 'healthcare deserts', that can be dealt with. But a large part of teh problem there is not accessibility but awareness and willingness.

Kind of disingenuous to change “fix it or stop” to just “stop it”.

I don’t know enough about the plan to comment. It is certainly true that no existing pharamacies and few if any hospitals have the infrastructure to store a vaccine at -91C. I’m not sure how the current plan deals with this problem. I also think managing the follow up shot is likely to be poorly implemented by the pharmacies, but I have trouble imagining the state doing it any better.

But I really need to read a more technical version of the objections.

[Mik]

That's the same temperature required to ship frozen steaks and ice cream across the country. I think we can handle it. It's not like we have a choice.

[jon-nyc]

Ah, no. My understanding is most research labs freezers don’t go below -80

[Mik]

That's what the Wall Street Journal says. Where's your info come from?

United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS) is one of the providers who is planning to build so-called "freezer farms" to gear up for the rapid delivery of vaccines. There are big challenges, but they are not as big as not having a vaccine to begin with.

I just have to say how much I love watching Cuomo be so transparent about the loss of all the major credit the dems had planned on taking, it’s truly delicious.

Biden (if elected) had better be the best thing since sliced bread.

This is not starting well.
